(4) K-3 In this take on "Mary Had a Little Lamb"--told wordlessly except for blackboard writing and the like in the illustrations--a lizard stows away in a contemporary girl's backpack and makes a mess at school. The lizard's antics create some humorous moments, but the art over-relies on frequent close-ups, off-kilter perspectives, and exaggerated facial expressions.
